Late-type evolved stars are well known for the decrease with age of their rotation and lithium abundance. However, the root cause of this property as well as the relationship between rotation and lithium content in these stars are not yet completely established. In the present work, we study the link between rotation and lithium abundances in solar-type giant stars on the basis of a large sample of 380 stars of spectral type F, G and K.
